The subject gives a complex overview about the electricity transmission and distribution task. It deals with particular elements technical parameters and gives information about the total behaviour in steady and transient states. Students are informed about supporting devices enabling safe and reliable operation.

Course outlines:

1.

Transmission and distribution system design, development strategy.

2.
